Institutions/Education
Institutional cultural policy plays the decisive role in formation of
dominant tendencies, methods and status of art creation. New methods of
creation, presentation and distribution of cultural product and creative
cooperation between all participants of cultural data exchange (authors,
audience, organizers, and theorists) demand new institutional strategies
and tactics. It is necessary to establish electronic art centers, work out
educational programs and projects to finance and support creative
initiatives in this field, since more and more artists and other cultural
activists try to find the most effective method of solving their creative
tasks with the help of new technologies. However, art community often
criticizes methods used by universities, foundations and some other
organizations. Open discussion of initiatives ‘from below’ and methods
of their support ‘on the top’ is the focus of reports and discussions
of this panel.
